On the topic of aero mods to the front verses the back, all of us template worshipers agree that it's the back half which counts most.

However improvements to the front, especially if they work, which may increase sales and "get people thinking" are also "good things". At least in my opinion.

I look at my work ten years ago and see that I did nothing to the trailer box, I looked only at the front. I credit this forum within the past year for opening my eyes to the error of my ways.

EDIT-1:
This might be a good reason for a longer nose/frontal area.
